Oracle mails cardboard laptop computers?

According to this article, Andy Armstrong claims to have received an unsolicited cardboard laptop computer from Oracle corporation on July 5th, 2007. Armstrong notes:

"There's some coke-addled marketing message behind it but I'm buggered if
I can work it out."

Here are two photo's of the cardboard computer:

The caption on the top of the cardboard laptop reads:

"We've taken the idea that the outside world is a dangerous place for unprotected content".

It appears that this may be Oracle marketing along the "unbreakable, can't break in" advertising campaign.
